The dog days are over…
Well, this post finds us in a much better spot for Micky and I. Instead of ignoring the situation and continuing our life as if nothing happened and I hide my feelings of loneliness I gained the guts to start-up the conversation to work it out. It was hard, it is hard sometimes to talk about stuff that has hurt your partner so much that you are afraid to bring more pain into an already tough situation. I could not live like that … so we talked.
We had gone to couples therapy years back. It had tought us a lot, including how to talk to each other and the longer you do not talk about it the harder the situation will be become. Taking those tools of starting the conversation and also using my tools to listen better to have a better understanding has helped us dig us out of this whole I got us in. Micky had every right to be hurt. She was very clear with me not to say something to my mom, but for whatever reason I took it upon myself to go against her wishes. I learned from this situation big time. I cannot assume others feelings. This is hard for me, and is a work in progress.
Things are better, much better! No not perfect, but when are they? I feel we got through a big hurdle in our relationship and has made it that much stronger. Sometimes these bad things pop up … even when you are pregnant that you have to work through. I feel confident and so much better and more in love with Micky. It’s funny how you feel you love someone so much you cannot imagine it getting any deeper, but it does.
So now onto growing our relationship stronger and preparing to bring this baby into a family that loves her so much!
